I know that this is primarily a voice recorder and I've certainly used it for that, but I always thought in the back of my mind that I could use this app to re-encode mps -- or wav files into mp3s as well -- but today, when someone gave me a huge .wav file of an opera recording, I tried to find a way to convert it to an mp3 so it didn't take up so much space on my storage card, but I can't find how to do it.

I tried dumping the song into the playlist, then hitting record with my mp3 options all set, but still, it only records external sound.

Was I wrong in thinking I could re-encode/convert music tracks with Resco Audio Recorder?
If so, what could I use?
Thanks in advance:)

audacity... freeware.

They made a PPC version, but I don't know if it converts. The PC version does everything audio wise

Thanks but I have Winamp, and CDex, and Nero -- come to think of it around a dozen apps on my desktop that encode mp3s; strange that they're so many apps that do that on the PC but not on the PPC...kind of sucks.
thanks anyway...

You say that... check out audacity... none come close to it.

Yup; see the "Can convert offline files?" row in the Audio Recording Bible ( http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/men...corderApps.asp )

I prefer doing the conversion of wav to Mp3 or vice versa with FlexiMusic Wave Editor.
